I hope ASUU won't be paid for the 8 months they've been on strike anyway

Should they be paid, who'll compensate students

Kasssandra:


Well, the man could have ended the strike by increasing fees to a million naira minnium

Which you would not have liked, but would have helped to solve the funding issue...which is the main reason why ASUU goes on strike.

Apologizing over an unfulfilled agreement just because election is few months away.

Chaiii..
These fools plan to use the strike for campaign!??

Nigerians forget very fast..... Some stupid parents and their children will still vote for the broom party, forgetting how miserable they made them in the last 8 months.


Nigerians deserve what they get.... You can't pray to be like Canada and reason like a primitive pygmy in the jungles of Congo.

EngrXrix:

Apologies is not enough. There should be some sort of compensation. Maybe allowing them not to pay a semester school fees would suffice.

dfrost:


Honestly, Ngige should not be holding any public office any sane and insane country.

fatboyslym007:
This move wicked...
FG wan dey give ASUU wotowoto strategically..

But FG do the needful...

yinkus6750:
Apologies ?
What effect has it 9n undergraduates that died due to the senseless unnecessarily prolonged strike ?
Like Unilorin students that died in a fuel laden bus while going home due to strike
Or the Ogbomosho receptionist lady that was kidnapped and killed with her boss?
That's among several others.
Failed leadership with bad direction.

Timekeeper452:
why wouldn’t they increase it? When useless ministers, useless aides and useless senators earn double of that? They should divide their earnings, use that and fund education (ASUU). Problem solved.

So, how would you solve the problem if you were in charge...and no I am no APC supporter.

ASUU has been on strike because of bad funding for universites. Universites are badly funded largely because , and this is before corruption comes in, fees are 'kept low'. That means they cannot fund themselves easily.

At the end, whatever government you vote...they have to find far more money than Nigeria has at the moment to adequately fund education. And it would come from higher fees...which you don't want...or taxing everyone ...which you would call evil.

South Africa charges high fees, and only sponsors students who come from houses that earn below a certain amount...the really really poor.

P.S APC government is bad, I agree. But the fact that ASUU has been going on strike since 1973, and frequently since 1992 tells me a lot of things...

blackpanda:


Guess you prefer the strike.

nkemoma:


Cut down the cost of governance... Use the money to fund their lavish lifestyles to solve important issues.

Start from there

ASUU call off the strike because of the court verdict or they reached an agreement with FG?

You prefer the continuous strike rather than tackling the cause head on.

Wisetrue99:

They knew that the students at home will vote them out massively

They are trying to do all they can to keep the students in school

But everyone will surprise them!

Kasssandra:


Yeah it sounds like a nice solution, until you get that reducing the cost of governance would at best not add much to the universites.(By my estimate, 500 million naira. Which would do some, but won't do everything)

(And off topic, but government owns lots of primary and secondary schools. They need money too)

At the end, whoever you support....sane countries fund their universites by high fees and , or, by taxing every economically active adult in the country.(we tax just 30% of our economically active adults.)
